Does anyone know when the 06 options will be released? I know about the 18" wheels and the colors, but just wondering about the other stuff.
Thanks

When do you think the 06's might start showing up on Dealer lots then? Sometime in Sept?

I was going to order a 05 V6, but you can't order it with the IUP right now! :bang:

I was hoping that they'll take the IUP restriction off for the 06's.

I would say late aug early sept for arrival. Who's saying you can't order a V6 with IUP? I have a V6 vert scheduled to be built later this month, V6, IUP. If you've got a dealer telling you that it isn't available, try another dealer.

From what I understand the order banks open around mid-may. I would expect to see the order guides around the same time.

I did go to another dealer to confirm that, they said the same thing! Is this not correct?

I was thinking that there might have been V6 orders put in with IUP before the restriction?

Maybe the Vert oders don't have a IUP restriction put on them? :angry:

I just went into the system an mocked up an order for the V6 coupe with IUP. It gave me the same warning that people were getting earlier on the GT's, "INFO-DUE TO INTERIOR UPGRADE PACKAGE AVAILABILITY REMOVE 18G AND ADD 18R TO GET UNIT SCHEDULED"

I get the same exact message if I try to build a convertible and we just got one of those scheduled this past week.

It will slow the order down, but it can be ordered.

Thanks Karpro! Maybe that's where the confusion is coming from!

Maybe I'll be able to get my order in after all!

I'd like it to look like this one below!

I wouldn't call silver gaudy or flashy. :scratch:

If you want flashy pick yellow, torch red, or legend lime.

White, silver (or titanium) and windviel are a little more low-key colors

Congrats on your order! I hope it works out for ya. I don't understand why they still have a limitation on them.

Thanks! I hope it works out too!

I think the limitation was just for a short time, it seems like they are caught up now. At least I hope so, or it's back to the drawing board! :bang:

Congrats Falchion! I plan to order at the end of the month.

I suppose, you, me and Tread could start North Texas-roundups in the future.

Yeah, that sounds good GhostTX. We should get our cars some time in the Spring. Perfect weather for driving a new Mustang!
